Mary began painting after losing her voice temporarily due to cancer. And she hasnít
stopped since!

Her dwellings and structures are often anthropomorphic and her compositions contain many
symbols that are reflective of her life experiences. The colors, textures, layers and titles
work together to give Mary another form
of communication.

In spite of the many challenges she continues to face, her paintings remain warm and welcoming,
with a lingering aura of optimism.
